I sat at the back of the class with Peter and Tony and we spent the whole time talking about Wade. The professor kept on giving us looks but we just laughed and ignored it. 

"Wade and I have just been talking for so long. I just want to tell people," said Peter. "But I'm nervous... What do you guys think is best?"

"I think most people will be fine," I said. "I think it's great... and-I-I have-we have something too." I looked at Tony and he nodded at me. "We're together too," I whispered. Peter's face dropped and he let out a little squeal which made the whole class turn their heads for a few seconds. Tony put his hand over Peter's mouth for a few moments until all attention was off us.

"Really?" he whispered excitedly. "I was hoping for this... secretly." 

"We're going to tell people too," said Tony. "Whenever we're ready." He put his arm around me and our heads met. "I'm so excited."

"How about we do it next class? Training?" I asked. Tony nodded and Peter smiled. The bell went and we all jumped out of our seats.

"Look! Wade's waiting at the door for me... he's in our training class!" said Peter excitedly and he ran to the door. We all walked together to training and Peter and Wade seemed very happy together. Wade put his hands around Peter's shoulders and he was holding him closely. Tony put his arm around me as we walked into the training hall and he gave me a reassuring look. 

"It'll be okay," said Tony. We all sat down in front of the fighting mats and the coach walked in. I could feel my stomach turning and my breathing was getting quicker. 

"Everyone find a pair. Today we're using boxing gloves and pads. Let's have Rogers and Stark up here to demonstrate," said coach. "Rogers hold the pads and Stark will be hitting." As coach went on to the class Tony came up really close to me when he was putting on the gloves.

"Now would be perfect. We'll have everyone's attention," said Tony. "I'll kiss you."

Tony started punching the pads and I looked over at the class and everyone was staring. All the girls were giggling in the corner and then all of sudden I felt a sudden jolt into my chest. Tony had punched me right into the chest and I gasped. "Ah Tony!" I cried. Everyone started to laugh. He had a nervous look on his face. Tony slowly came up to me and he threw the gloves on the floor. He put his hands on my cheeks and then we heard all the laughing stop. He pulled me down by the back of head running his fingers through each and every hair. The second our lips touched I heard Natasha and Peter screaming with excitement. Then the rest of the avengers started clapping and then, we broke the kiss of because I could feel Tony laughing. I looked back at the class and the whole team were all talking to each other in shock. Some of the girls looked kind of disappointed which made us laugh. 

"I'm sorry I hit you. Two in a day," said Tony quietly in my ear. "Everyone here knows."

"It does feel kind of good," I said and we returned to the floor with everyone else while the coach just stood there a bit confused. 

"I so knew it!" cried Natasha. "Peter and I were hoping for it." Tony sat with his arms around me and I couldn't stop smiling. I knew everyone was still staring but it was okay. 

The rest of the lesson went pretty quickly. I spent most of it playfighting with Tony while Bruce and Thor stood there laughing at us. Wanda hugged me on the way back to the dorms and I felt so happy. 

The second I got into my dorm I put my head in my pillow and shut my eyes. I couldn't stop thinking about our kiss. It felt like the best thing in the world to have his mouth running against mine in front of people. The way his hands were trembling around the back of my head while mine were clutching my painful chest. Despite the pain, it was amazing. The sound of everyone cheering like we had just scored a football goal and the crowd going crazy. The way I could feel him smiling against me made me just want to kiss him even more.

The door burst open and Tony came running in and he jumped on top of me and I laughed. "Why are you in bed? There's a party!" cried Tony and he tugged at me. 

"Tony, I'm tired," I said and I kissed his forehead. "Go on with out me."

"No! Bucky will be there and you haven't told him yet!" said Tony. "Please." I sighed and nodded and he wrapped his arms around my neck and squealed. "I'm so happy."

"I know sweetie," I said. His face blushed when I called him that and I smiled to myself. "Let's go then." He led me through the corridors and I could start to hear the music playing loudly and I shook my head at Tony. "Can't we go somewhere quiet and makeout?"

"We do that all the time! Come on Captain," said Tony and he winked. 

"You're so lucky you're cute," I said. As we entered the room, flashing strobe lights blinded my eyes. The music was so loud I could just about hear Tony. There were people everywhere; you couldn't walk without being shoved by some stranger. Tony pointed to the corner of the room where Bucky was. He was sitting in an arm chair with Natasha on his lap and they were whispering in each others ears while laughing. I smiled as I walked over and they both waved at me. 

"Nat told me what you guys did!" said Bucky excitedly. "I'm so proud of you buddy!" 

"Haha thanks," I said. "So how have you been lately? I haven't seen you much." 

"Oh yeah. I've been off campus a lot but I've been good," said Bucky. "I got a lot of business to take care of." 

"Like what?" I asked. He winked at me and I looked at him confused. I sat down next to them and we all talked for a good 20minutes until I realised I couldn't see Tony anymore. "Well I best get going. I can finally kiss my Tony in public." They both laughed.

"Don't do it too much!" cried Natasha as I left. I found Tony standing by the drinks table and he had already drunk four full cups of the alcohol and I shook my head.

"Tony! You're going to be so drunk by the end of the night!" I cried. "Or are you already? How strong is this?"

"Yeahhhh! I know," he said and he grabbed me by my arms. "Kiss me Steveee. Kiss Tony." 

"Oh Tony. I left you for less than half an hour," I said. He grabbed me by my ears and started moving his tongue across my lips. I started to laugh and then he held onto my checks. 

"Kiss! Kiss!" he cried. I grabbed him by his cheeks and I kissed him until I heard people clapping around the room. 

"Okay, now I'm taking you home," I said and I put my arm around him and started to walk out the door. 

"No Steve. Nooo. I wanna stay," whined Tony. The second I managed to get him out of the room I picked him up and I carried him all the way back to our room. I placed him down on his bed and I put his duvet over him. "Come here Steve. I want you."

"Okay Tony," I said. I crawled under the covers with him and he started poking my face. "Go to sleep. You're going to have a hangover tomorrow."

"Meh," said Tony and he jumped up and ran to the bathroom. I could hear him throwing up through the walls and I waited until he had finished before I got up to find him with his head rested on the toilet seat and vomit running down his shirt.

"Oh Tony," I cried. 

"I'm sorry Steve. I'd never really drunk before," said Tony. I got a towel from the cupboard and I knelt down next to Tony. I started to wipe his mouth clean. 

"You need to take of your shirt Tony," I said. He started to giggle and I shook my head at him. I helped him get it off his head and I put it into the washing basket. "Okay, do you feel like you're going to be sick again?" 

"No," mumbled Tony. 

"Brush your teeth and then we'll go to bed," I said. He got up slowly and he went over to the sink while I changed my clothes. He took off all of his clothes before he got into his bed and then he held my hand so I couldn't go to my bed. "Should I sleep with you?" He nodded and I lay down next to him again. I kissed his head and he shut his eyes. 

"Steve," he said and he put his arm around me. "I... I love you." My heart started to beat a lot quicker and I smiled.

"I love you too."
